The questioner : May Allah forgive your sin, O Shaykh. Now, the Turkish and Syrian workers.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : The Turkish and Syrian workers are Nusayriyyah, and it is written in their passports and residence permits that they are Muslims, and they work in butcheries and other kitchens.
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
The questioner : Is it permissible, O Shaykh, to eat their slaughtered animals?
The Shaykh : The Nusayriyyah and others from the people of innovation are looked into regarding their innovation. If their innovation entails disbelief, then it is not permissible to eat their slaughtered animals.
Because it is not permissible to eat the slaughtered animals of disbelievers except the People of the Book, the Jews and the Christians. But if the innovation does not entail disbelief, there is nothing wrong with eating their slaughtered animals, though others are more preferred than them, even if the innovation does not entail disbelief.
